Answer: $x=-14$

Step-by-step explanation:

Get rid of parentheses: $-2x-5-23=0$

Add all the numbers together, and all the variables: $-2x-28=0$

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right:

$-2x=28$

$x=28/-2$

$x=-14$

On a 100 feet circular race track there are lights

solmaris [256]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Every 18 feet.</u>

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

<h3>1. Find the LCM between the numbers.</h3>

LCM stands for "least common multiple", and is the least number that results from multiplicating any of the 3 numbers by another number.

Analyze numbers starting from 9 to find the LCM. The first number than can be divided by 3, 6, and 9 is 18. Hence, 18 is out LCM

<h3>2. Interpret the results.</h3>

18 as a LCM means that every 18 feet there will be lights at the same distance in the circular road.

I am confused about how to do this problem and I don't think it should be hard, but I just don't know how to approach it, so if

solniwko [45]

Answer:

a) (0.555, 0) and (6, 0)

b) r = -3 and r = 1.8

c) (0.875, 0.676)

d) (0, 1.235)

Step-by-step explanation:

Set each term in the numerator and denominator equal to 0 and find r.

In the numerator:

r = 7/8, 5/9, or 6

In the denominator:

r = 9/5, 7/8, or -3

Zeros in the numerator that aren't in the denominator are r-intercepts.

Zeros in the denominator that aren't in the numerator are vertical asymptotes.

Zeros in both the numerator and the denominator are holes.

a) (0.555, 0) and (6, 0)

b) r = -3 and r = 1.8

c) Evaluate m(r) at r = 7/8. To do that, first divide out the common term (-8r + 7) from the numerator and denominator.

m(r) = (-9r+5)² (r−6)² / ( (-5r+9)² (r+3)² )

m(⅞) = (-9×⅞+5)² (⅞−6)² / ( (-5×⅞+9)² (⅞+3)² )

m(⅞) = (-23/8)² (-41/8)² / ( (37/8)² (31/8)² )

m(⅞) = (-23)² (-41)² / ( (37)² (31)² )

m(⅞) = 0.676

The hole is at (0.875, 0.676).

d) Evaluate m(r) at r = 0.

m(0) = (-9×0+5)² (0−6)² / ( (-5×0+9)² (0+3)² )

m(0) = (5)² (-6)² / ( (9)² (3)² )

m(0) = 1.235

The m(r)-intercept is (0, 1.235).

Twice the difference of a number and 5 is 7

zysi [14]

The difference of a number and 5 = n - 5

Twice that = 2(n - 5)

‘is’ is the equal sign, so the expression before is equal to 7.

Equation: 2(n - 5) = 7
